112569|61|eng |01|vfbc|test3|16|XL|

how to read both records as 1st record has 2 details in a single row separated by comma. CSV parser is giving below error-

“The CSV record has more columns than data, Resolution: Please provide valid CSV data at line 7 or route it to the error view”

Error:
Failure: Error parsing at line 2, Reason: Cannot complete CSV data parsing, Resolution: Please provide valid CSV data at line 1 or route it to the error view

Hi,

Can anyone help on it , I need it badly to solve my pending issue.

if you observe, there is a blank line character in your file.

“|01|aabc|test1|Regular|Short||112569|61|eng |01|vfbc|test3|16|XL|
\n9876540|51|en_in |51|Test2|size|minus|51|1X||||||||”
